### "Good stuff"

June 20, 2022

5.0

Great. Amazing customer support

Pros

Simple to set up. Everything I need to know in one view. No pesky cookie banners.

Cons

Cookieless analytics are not as powerful as their GA for example, but it's a good tradeoff to make for the added privacy.

June 16, 2022

Having analytics on the website without all of the unnecessary tracking

Pros

The ability to track what you need to and easily understand business KPIs. Simple and easy to use interface and UI experience. Not having to put Cookies usage warnings on the site.

Cons

Less features than more robust analytics software. Lack of ability to better customize and create more visual ways to display data.

### "As it's called: Simple Analytics..."

May 23, 2022

5.0

Pros

Very nice to get insights in my website statistics, without "sponsoring" Google or Facebook or providing them with info about users. Besides that it saves a lot of time from staring at those GA stats. I have a professional view on my work, the content of my site is the most important thing to get visitors. Since I left Google Analytics and deleted Facebook, my website is still visited very good and I feel I have not lost any visitors. And no boring cookie message anymore!

Cons

No cons so far. I hope more people start to use Simple Analytics.

### "It is Simple, and that's what good about it"

November 29, 2022

4.0

Good, I like the tool, is useful in our context and have been a relief with GDPR strict polices with cookies.

Pros

It's Simple. It's good to have raw data of the visits in the website and easy to implement the tracker/events. Also, is really fast to adapt for those who already used Google Analyitcs or similar.

Cons

Data Visualization isn't that good, we need to export to looker studio to "consume" data as we like.

### "Fantastic ethical analtyics solution"

January 25, 2023

5.0

Fantastic product and would recommend to anyone looking to gain insights into their application while respecting their users' privacy.

Pros

The company is one of the few privacy-respecting analytics solutions with strong ethics, the integration was dead-simple, customer support has been incredibly helpful and personal. They also provide an awesome feature to collect custom events in addition to the basic web analytic metrics.Also the interface is a joy to use. simple in the best way

Cons

One con used to be that you could not see your custom events in the UI, however they have recently added this in the past couple of weeks.

Reason for choosing Simple Analytics

I was looking for a solution that did not collect user details yet provided good insights into my app's usage. Was exactly what I was working for

### "Best analytics tool that simplifies all the work for marketers!"

July 10, 2022

5.0

It's a good experience, simplicity, daitailled anaytics, and perfect customer care!

Pros

The combination of the simple dashboard and how they implement all the features in it to be so smooth!

Cons

I don't think k that there's something like that, unfortunately, simple analitics needs few other features to be implemented, but they are working on them for sure, we are finding big updates in the platform from now and then!

### "Privacy aware analystics"

April 17, 2024

5.0

Pros

It is the easiest to set up, privacy aware alternative for the big "tracking giants." I don't want to spy on my website's visitors, I just want to know they were there.

Cons

I really cannot recall anything, which I don't like about the product.

### "Ethical Analytics"

May 26, 2022

5.0

Great. Had a few quirks to work out and the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] replied to my email in less than 24 hours.

Pros

As a developer creating software on the side of my normal job, it's important to me that I can see how users are using my site. However I don't want to sell out my users for the sake of a few graphs. Simple Analytics bridges that gap: a good product that I pay a little money for and it aligns all the incentives nicely. So far very happy with them.

Cons

It's not free. If you're looking for free, this isn't it, but I prefer it that way so they're incentivized to serve me, not their own interests.

May 3, 2022

Excellent alternative for Google Analytics. Yes, you pay a small subscription, but you get a lot in return: GDPR-proof and cookieless analytics, accurate tracking and clear visuals.

Pros

Accurate tracking, great visuals, has every feature you'll need. Hint: try their Chrome extension, it excludes your own visits to your site : )

Cons

Not applicable: I'm really stoked about Simple Analytics.

### "Great GDPR-conformant analytics solution that's very easy to integrate"

March 19, 2024

5.0

We had a small issue with some events initially not getting tracked, which turned out to be related to the document structure on our site. Simple Analytics' support was super responsive and worked with us to ready a fix on their side in record time, which was a great customer experience for us!

Pros

We were looking for a GDPR-conformant analytics solution that also works without setting any browser cookies, and Simple Analytics fits the bill perfectly.

Cons

Nothing really. From my perspective, I was only concerned with integrating SA into a website project, and that was very easy and straight-forward.

Pros

We had a glitch in reporting caused by external factors. I wrote to customer service and a custom solution was created for us in minutes.

Cons

The setup is very barebones. Then again, that's what the software promises, even in its name.

June 7, 2022

4.0

Pros

I found Simple Analytics to be an excellent alternative for Google Analytics. Simple Analytics values the privacy of my users, is located in the EU and does one thing very well: Analytics.

Cons

Setting up a custom domain took longer than expected, because of an issue with SSL, but this was quickly resolved with the help of their support.

### "Clear data without cookies"

December 12, 2022

5.0

We are able to see the differences in values between GA and the actual traffic that we get on the webshop.

Pros

We like the fact that we can see the amount of actual traffic on our webshop and where it is coming from.

Cons

There are no values for conversions or revenue, but with cookieless programs it is virtually impossible to get this data.
